we have plenty of laws that go against our basic animal instincts because our instincts don´t take into account the rights of other people....and the respect of such rights is necessary for us to function in a society...

if laws that go against our instincts where to be thrown away then one could make the case that for example the definition of rape should be removed from the law.....after all If I see a pretty girl walking down the street and my instincts tell me to have sex with her then what´s the problem?...the fact that she might not be so inclined?...pfff....I am stronger than her so I can force it so what´s the problem any way?

likewise 2 people kicking the crap and/or killing eachother does not "solve" anything.....it does not determine who is right....only who is stronger/more well trained/luckier/whatever.
